Eurostar London to Paris- passholder seats sold out for multiple date

I am looking to travel from London to Paris using the Eurostar 23rd July using my global pass (2nd class). An error message keeps appearing when booking seat reservations saying that there’s a possibility all pass holder reservations are sold out. Can somebody confirm to me that this is the case? I am also flexible with dates and times however, the same message seems to be appearing. I’m not sure which other websites I can check other than Eurostar, which of course are charging a full ticket price.

Purchased a reservation ticket with b-europe but it wasn't confirmed

Hi. Not a specific Eurail problem I guess - but purchased a ticket with b-europe.com to go from London to Paris with my Eurail pass and the payment went through and was deducted from my bank account but got a message on the b-europe site that the ticket wasn’t confirmed. I then got an email from b-europe saying actually the ticket is confirmed but there were no tickets to download and the email said I was only charged the 4 euro booking fee (even though the full amount was deducted from my bank account). And when I go back to check my tickets on the b-europe website there is no ticket from London to Paris.Has anyone had any problems with b-europe today (8th July)?Thanks

Caledonian Sleeper two travel days?

Hello,my friend and I have booked a trip with the Caledonian Sleeper from Edinburgh to London. The train departures at 23:40 from Edinburgh and arrives next day at 07:07 in London. On the app the trip is splitted by Edinburgh (23:40) → Carstairs (00:20) and Carstairs (00:20) → London (07:07). If we would activate both trip, we would spend two travel days. But we only want to spend the day of our arrival in London (like Caledonian Sleeper conditions says). How should this be handled?

E-tickets available for reservation Marseille - Madrid?

Hi! I cannot seem to find it, but perhaps you experts know better: Are there e-tickets available for the seat reservations on train RSC9731 from Marseille to Madrid? Or are paper tickets the only option for this route? Thank you!

Reservations are payed and booked, however they don't appear in My Reservations

Hi All,A few weeks ago we made some reservations for our Interrail journey. Those reservations were payed and we got an email that they were booked, but not confirmed yet. Besides that, they also don't appear in our reservation list and we did not receive E-tickets. We already initiated a ticket to customer services without any response. Do you know how we can resolve this issue? Our journey will start on 20AUG22.Thanks!

IC 394 Hamburg to Copenhagen - reservation impossible. Other options?

Hi all I need to get from Hamburg to Copenhagen on the 23rd of July. The best train i could find when previously looking was the IC 394 train.When i try to reserve a seat for that train it says that “Reservation impossible”… for all trains leaving in that direction. Is there something happening that i have missed? Is a seat reservation really needed for this route or could i give it a go anyways without a reservation? Perhaps there is another route i could take just in case? Although, to be fair, there doesn’t seem to be too many ways to Denmark from Hamburg...

Night train Berlin - Warsaw; unavailable on website

Hello,I want to go in a night train from Berlin to Warsaw, the problem is that I found some good routes (with a very good price) in the interrail app, and then when I click “go to webside” and I search for the trains the first disgrace that I find is that the prices are much higher. Then I click on the journeys that appear there and there is a message saying “prices unavailable” and doesn’t let me do the reservation. Anyone knows what can I do? is it possible that in a future I will be able to do my reservation on the trains? Thank you in advance,  Melcior.

London - Brussel or Paris. Trains for return trip seem all fully booked

Quick question,ill travel to London for 4 Days and found a nice connection. But on my way back it seems like every train from London to Brussel or Paris is fully booked with Interrail. Is there any chance that ill get my reservation on the 24.07 or is it normal that every Eurostar Train is booked. (I checked for Trains starting 22.07 - 10.08 and every single one is not available) thanks to your help

​​​​​​​It is so complicated to make a reservation with the interrail pass for the greek islands!

Dear community, i am very upset. We bought the Greek Island Pass 6 days, long time ago in orther to planify our holidays with time and to avoid complications.  From more than 4 weeks we are trying to make a reservation using our pass with the only company that has service to Lemnos (Blue Star Ferries). We phoned several times, it’s very difficult to be attended and almost impossible to make the reservation with the pass, when we finally thought it was done, but they made only the booking for the car (obviously not included on the pass) the reservation for us was for an other day! When we finally could cancelled it we couldn’t make another reservation for the day that we have our car, maybe just our car will go on holiday. The problem is that by phone they say that our pass is not valid for the 5th of August, out of date they say (it is for one month and we start on the 3 of August!!) online it is impossible to.  They told us to talk with Interrail. We sent more mails to the ferry compa

Munich to Venice- error ''search an alternative route''

I’m trying to reserve a direct night train from Munich to Venice on 22 July (NJ 40463). The system keeps on giving me an error at checkout saying that I need to look for an alternative route. When I search an alternative route, I see the same train (NJ 40463) but it shows that I need to change trains in Austria. It will not let me book the direct train from Munich to Venice, but it allows me to book the first leg to Austria. Can I book the first leg and just stay on the train all the way to Venice? Help is appreciated!

How to book night train reservations - italy?

Hi - this may be a stupid question but I need all the help I can get with booking night trains for italy.I have found the trains I want on both italiarail and trentitalia websites but neither of these sites have an obvious option for applying the interrail pass to the booking. But when I try the interrail/eurrail reservation system it does not find any of the trains even though both other sites clearly have booking available.This is specifically for booking a night train/sleeper cabin.

Can't make seat reservation Warsaw - Berlin via Interail, Oebb.at and Bahn.com

Hi guys! I’m having issues trying to make a seat reservation for a night train from Warsaw to Berlin on Aug. 20, 4.15 am. It basically says everywhere (oebb.at; bahn.com; interrail website) that I cannot make a reservation, and I don’t really think all seats are gone because it tells me the same for all other trains. I tried the PKP website, but I see no option for “no ticket, seats only”. The only website that allows me to make a seat reservation is Polrail, but the price is more than twice the price it should costs. Can anybody more experienced than me help me with this?

Amsterdam to Bruges. What is the best option?

We're a family of 4 planning on going Amsterdam → Bruges on the 26th of July, sometime late morning or early afternoon. After looking on Eurail, we essentially have two options: Thalys or IC.Thalys to Brussels, IC to Bruges USD $94 IC to Brussels, separate IC to Bruges (no reservation)Although slower, obviously number 2 seems to be the better option. But I'm concerned if there will be space on this train, as it's peak summer season and I’ve been told to reserve seats wherever I can. Obviously I'd hate to stand for 4 hours.

Reservation Vienna to Budapest - ''not available'' when going through payment

Hello, I deciced to move from Vienna to Budapest on a train which does not require reservation. On the website the route seemed to be included in the pass, however I wanted to book a seat but when I tried to pay a message said that the route is not available. Does it mean that I cannot take the train or simply I cannot book a seat?
